The neighbors started their fireworks early last night and it went on what seemed like forever. I dread the next week because they celebrate for a week or so.

My "kids" got me up around six this morning wanting to go outside. They have a doggy door, but are spoiled and like me to go out with them. So I got an early start. By 9:30, I was at Sam's and ready to get all the groceries that we needed. My bill was over $200.00. I usually don't spend that much, but stocked up a bit.

It is quiet now in the neighborhood. Think I will drive around to the street where the firecracker are and honk until I wake them up. NO, that wouldn't be nice, would it?

I have thought of my forefathers who came over here from France. They came because of Religious freedom. Their name was Remi. The husband lost his wife as they were indentured to two separate families and came on different boats. Her boat evidently was lost at sea, because she never arrived. He married later and I am from that line.

I love history and used to spend hours in the library before I moved so far away.

Have a good and safe week-end. Nena
